An Explanation

Dearest Friends,

A number of you have approached me and asked why I haven't blogged for a while. Although I am very touched that you still visit this site and keep an eye on my musings, as it were, I must apologise for not updating this minuscule corner of the Internet wherein I am permitted to inhabit.

Those of you who know me personally are aware that I am currently going through some pretty challenging issues in my personal life, which I do not wish to discuss on this platform. Suffice to know that I am, Thank G-d in good health and very positive about the future.

I promise that I will return here and resume one of my favourite hobbies (i.e. writing) when I am at liberty to do so. Please bear with me and know that you are not forgotten.

The Lord above works in mysterious ways and right now, I am gaining some solace from the knowledge that whatever He prescribes for my future will be only for the best.

Shalom and keep smiling.

The Scribbler

The Bomb Shelter

I'm feeling pretty down today. I don't know if its the shitty weather (grey skies and nothing but rain) or the fact that the alarm clock woke me up at the ungodly hour of 4.30 this morning - but I really don't feel happy. I'm pondering whether I'm finding my marriage or parenthood more challenging right now. My throat is raw from all the screaming I've done at the kids over the last few days and my T.Q (temper quotient) is at an all time low. You sneeze at the wrong volume and I'll bite your head off. I'm an absolute bastard to live with and I know it. I prefer not to engage in conversation with any of the family because I can't be bothered to be sociable. At least on my blog, I can let my emotions rip, without someone interrupting my rant. The underlying cause for it all? It could be a growing sense of panic that school is approaching and I really haven't done any preparation yet. When I sit down to start work, I get a feeling of total paralysis...

London's Win Is My Loss.

I can barely conceal my overwhelming enthusiasm for the IOC's decision to award the city I live in, management of the 2012 Olympic Games. I'm not going to harp on about why I'm so against the decision, suffice to point you to the blog I posted back in June. So now I have to spend the next seven years listening to endless debates and counter-debates as to how prepared/unprepared this city is and whether anything at all will change. It makes you almost wish you were listening to some gossip about the Royal Family instead (I said almost ). One positive outcome is that we beat the French (once again) and if I think about it from that angle, I can come to the conclusion that hosting the games not be such a bad thing after all. Guess what....I'm already beginning to feel better!
